Default What Next?

I'm currently attending college and I will graduate in the next 6 months. As we all know the economy is not the best right now for getting hired as a pilot. I have my commercial pl, instrument, and multi-engine ratings. So what are my options? Anyone with any suggestions I would really like to hear them.

get your CFI

but make sure you get it at a place where you will find a job later on. nowadays schools are more apt to hire their own.

Agreed. Most low time pilots are going to have to flight instruct. There ARE other avenues to take, and for sure look for them, but they are few and far between. Teaching is going to be the best way to get experience and a little cheese...not much mind you but some to fill the belly.

Get the CFI.
